Magic Files ?

Try to rename it so that the name begins with the "$" sign. Does Speck help while he's alive?-)
Sincerely, Yuri.

If the downloaded program does not use 128K, you can kill all files with numbers,
then write in trdos GOTO "filename" CODE and that's it, if the program opens but does not
react, add $ to the beginning of the name, and for 128s you need to do this for each
file and change it inside in the 8th... Although this magic is not magic at all - a must die!

VI> P.S Hey, I didn’t have a disk drive.

I don’t understand - do you want to use this on spec or on emulation?

C u l8r,
Dmitry aka ZDW.

Glitches on the screen are common. After downloading, the program should
start from the place where it was interrupted.

Otherwise, one of three things - either you launched from under the emulator (and emulators do not digest Magic files well), or the program was unsuccessfully dropped (this often
happens, sometimes you have to reset it 5-10 times before a working version
is obtained). Either the program uses the second interrupt mode, then all files
need to be renamed so that the name begins with $ (for example, instead of '@n' - '$@n')
Or the program provides protection from the Magic button - then :(((

VI> How to get .b and .c files?

So you got the @n.c files :)))) [unfortunately, there is no other way, or rather
-painstakingly by hand]

Warm greetings, Slava!

You split the main @ file into pieces, and load the rest into the appropriate
pages. It just looks different from the disk: goto "@"code , and then it
starts loading itself.

Thank you for your time.

There is (I don’t currently have) a special packer magic files. The output is a BASIC loader, a picture, a code block. If necessary, I can look for it.

With all sorts of regards and wishes.
Igor.

Look, pls. And throw it into the echo.

With respect, Vlad
